Odes To Malaysia

ODES TO MALAYSIA!
When there was the search for Malaysia's favourite national girl
It was won with all four paws down by the strong Malaysian tiger
Looking around for another gal petite and dear
It ended up with the pretty wise little mousedeer
With plenty of sunshine it's easy to get a permanent tan
Especially when one is a hairy 'Orang Utan' or 'rambutan'
Most popular musical note here is obviously the sixth note 'la'
When every sentence practically automatically ends with a 'lah'
If you're curious to know the habitual late comer's pastime
Then it must be related to the practice of stretchable 'rubber time'
If you wonder why the local hands often have oily palms
Then the cause may lie with growing too many oil palms
While some are obese with the majority being thin
You may get the answer from the lean price of tin
When you want to see something beautiful yet may cause some nausea
Then you have to hunt high and low in the jungle for the rare Rafflesia
When you can love to eat Malaysian durian with its thorns and smell
Then you've qualified and adapted to the popular lifestyle real swell
When you want to get a smooth and quick entry in 2007 to visit Malaysia
At right places just shout the passwords "Happy 50th Birthday, Malaysia!"
